Title: Gold pins on Jamma connector are... bad looking. Any help?
Post by: BigBadBilly on September 07, 2015, 02:55:48 pm
Hey guys. The edge connector on a new game I got seems toast. I know they are supposed to be gold, but they are silver. Looks like someone polished the gold right off.

Is there any easy fix to repair it? Or, even better... can the pins be tested to see if they work at all?

Its probably just warn off from having the connector removed many times. There isn't really anything you can do about it and just realize that it might oxidize
